INSTALLATION NOTES
Proper planning for your PelletVent Pro
installation will result in greater safety,
efciency, and convenience, saving both time
and money. Use only authorized Simpson
Dura-Vent PelletVent Pro listed parts. Do not
install damaged parts.
1. WARNING: When passing through ceilings
and walls, make sure all combustible materials
and building insulation products are a minimum
of 1" from the vent pipe (minimum of 3" in
Canada when used on pellet- or corn-burning
appliances).
2.
When exiting through walls, make sure NFPA
rules are followed for distance from windows
and openings. These rules are shown on page
7.
3. Do not mix and match with other products or
improvised solutions.
4. Practice good workmanship. Sloppy
work could jeopardize your PelletVent Pro
installation.
5. Never use a vent with an inside diameter that
is smaller than the appliance ue outlet.
6. Multistory: Where PelletVent Pro passes
through the ceiling, use Simpson Dura-Vent
Firestop/Support assembly.
7. PelletVent Pro placement: When deciding
the location of your stove and vent, try to
minimize the alteration and reframing of
structural components of the building.
8. Sections of pipe are connected to each
other by pushing them rmly together and
twisting. Screws are not required. If however,
screws are desired, use 1/4"-long sheet metal
screws. Under no circumstances, penetrate
the inner liner with screws.
9. PelletVent Pro does not need nor require
RTV Sealant to be used at joints, but it may
be used if desired. Check with the Appliance
Manufacturer for any additional requirements.
Note: the Appliance Adapter may require
sealant when connecting to the appliance
outlet, and the Adjustable
Length section may
require sealant when connecting to the previous
section to provide a leak-free t
.
10. Never install single-wall pipe to freestanding
pellet stoves. Single-wall pipe may be
connected to a replace insert, provided it
is inside the replace, and the replace has
completely sealed surroundings.
11. Do not connect B-Vent pipe with aluminum
liners to pellet appliances.
12. Inspections: Using pelletized fuel does not
eliminate the need for inspection and cleaning.
During the heating season, inspect monthly,
and clean at least once a year.

GENERAL INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
PelletVent Pro is listed with a minimum 1"
clearance to combustibles (3" clearance in
Canada when used on pellet- or corn-burning
appliances). Refer to Table 1 for framing
requirements for Ceiling Supports and Wall
Thimble.
1. Follow the stove/appliance manufacturers
instructions.
A. Choose an appliance that is listed by a
recognized testing laboratory.
B. Connect only one ue per appliance.
C. Follow the appliance manufacturer's
instructions and safety manual for maximum
efciency and safety. Overring can damage
the appliance and vent.
2. If the vent exit is on top of the stove
(Figure 1):
A. Place the appliance according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
B. Drop a plumb bob to the center of the
appliance ue outlet and mark center point on
the ceiling, cut a square hole in the ceiling for
the Ceiling Support Firestop Spacer. Refer to
Table 1 for the dimensions of the hole.
C. Connect Appliance Adapter to stove: Due
to the variety of different stove collars, the
Appliance Adapter may need high-temperature
non-hardening sealant in order to achieve a
leak-free connection. .
D. Connect Pipe sections. Attach PelletVent
Pro pipe sections by pushing male and female
ends of pipe together and twisting until pipe is
in locked position. PelletVent Pro pipe sections
do not require any sealant. Screws are not
needed, but 1/4" screws can be used if desired,
however, be sure you do not penetrate the
inner liner.
E. When the pipe passes through the Ceiling
Support Firestop Spacer at ceiling, tighten bolt
and clamp around pipe.
F. ALWAYS MAINTAIN AT LEAST 1"
CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS (3" clearance in Canada
when installed on pellet- and corn-burning
appliances). Where the vent passes through
additional oors and ceilings, always install a
Ceiling Support Firestop Spacer.
G. When the PelletVent Pro enters the Attic,
install an Attic Insulation Shield around the vent
(Figures 1 & 3). This will prevent insulation
and debris from collecting near the vent pipe.
Use (4) wood screws to secure the base of the
Attic Insulation Shield to the framed opening.
Adjust the height of the Attic Insulation Shield
by sliding the top cylindrical shield over the one
from the base. Insure that the top of the Shield
is above the level of building insulation. Secure
the Shield in place with at least two (2) sheet
metal screws through the side of the cylindrical
shield. Attach collar around the top of the Attic
Insulaiton shield.
H. After lining up for the hole in roof, using the
same method as 2.(B), cut either a round or
square hole in the roof. Always cut the hole
with the proper clearance to combustibles.
Install the upper edge and sides of Flashing
under the roong materials and nail to the roof
along the upper edge. Do not nail across the
lower edge. Seal all nail heads with non-
hardening waterproof sealant.
I. To nish, apply non-hardening waterproof
sealant where the Storm Collar will meet the
vent and Flashing; slide Storm Collar down until
it sets on the Flashing, put the Cap on and twist
to lock (Figure 2).

A. Place the appliance according to
manufacturers instructions.
B. Cut and frame a square opening in the wall
as specied in Table 1. The black portion of
the Wall Thimble is to be attached to the interior
wall, and the unpainted portion is to be attached
to the exterior wall. The Wall Thimble adjusts to
t walls from 3"-8" thick (Figure 5).
C. Connect an Appliance Adapter to back of
stove; attach pipe to penetrate wall so vertical
section from Tee will be 3" from the exterior of
the wall. Attach a Single Tee or a Double Tee
with Clean-Out Adapter, and proceed up the
wall. Attach an Adjustable Wall Strap just above
the tee. Wall Straps (adjustable from 1"-3"
clearance, also offered in xed clearance 1"
non adjustable version) must be placed every
4-feet along the vertical run. Assemble pipe
in the same manner described in Step 2 of the
general instructions.
D. Seal the exterior section of the Wall
Thimble to the wall with non-hardening
waterproof sealant. As an option, you may
also seal the gap between the pipe and Wall

Once all the components are rmly seated
and properly aligned, carefully drill three 1/8"
diameter holes through the outer sleeve only in
the center of the slots located at the bottom of
the Adjustable Length pipe. Do not penetrate
the inner liner. Use (3) 1/4" length sheet
metal
screws to secure the Adjustable Length pipe.
The completed installation will look like Figure 7.
INSTALLATION INTO A
MASONRY FIREPLACE
1. Have the masonry chimney inspected
by a certied chimney sweep or installer, to
determine it’s structural condition.
2. Carefully read the pellet stove or insert
installation instructions.
3. Measure and record the dimensions as
shown in Figure 8.
4. Use dimension "A" to determine total pipe
requirements. Add 12 additional inches to
insure the termination is an adequate distance
above the rooine.
5. The gross pipe required will be “A” dimension
plus 12 inches. Five feet of this will be Flex
Pipe. The remainder will be rigid pipe. For
each joint, subtract 1-1/2 inches to allow for
the overlap. You may need extra pipe, or an
adjustable length pipe section to achieve the
correct height.
6. Assemble the rst rigid pipe section to the
Flex Pipe, insuring that the "UP" arrows shown
9

END OF PIPE
A
on the pipe labels are, in fact, pointing up. Push
the sections together and twist to lock. Screws
are not required for a rm lock, however, should
it be desired to use them, use stainless steel
sheet metal screws 1/4-inch long - do not
penetrate the inner liner of the pipe.
7. Repeat this process for the remainder of the
pipe sections, and lower the assembly down
the chimney as shown in Figure 9. Lower it
below its normal position in order to connect the
Flex Pipe to the pipe on the appliance. It may
be necessary to tie a line to the top section, to
pull it back up later.
8.
In making the connection at the appliance,
congurations other than the one shown in
Figure 10
may be made. It may be necessary
to contact the manufacturer of the unit to
determine exactly what may or may not be
done to make the correct connection. Some
typical arrangements are shown in Figures 11
and 12. An Appliance Adapter may be needed,
depending on the exit size of the stove or insert
collar.
9. If a Tee is necessary to make the
connection, as shown in Figure 12, the Tee
has a removable Clean Out Adapter on its base
to enable cleaning. The Tee Support Bracket
to hold the Tee to the rear of the appliance
is mandatory. If it is desired to mount the
Tee Support to the rear of the stove, obtain
approval from the manufacturer of the stove
before drilling, tapping, or performing any other
alterations to the appliance.
10. Connect the appliance to the coupling on
the bottom of the Flex Pipe, by twisting to the
locked position. Push the appliance into the
replace to its nal resting place. Go to the top
of the chimney and pull the vent system up to
it’s desired height.
11. For the termination of the pellet vent, you
will use a Tall Cone Flashing, and a Storm
Collar. This will require 14 inches of pipe above

then a section of Flex Pipe will be needed to
accommodate the offset.
B. A Tee is installed at the bottom end of the
vertical pipe (Figure 16).
C. A Reduction Collar or a Trim Collar is
required to go around the pipe section that
passes through the masonry to give it a nished
look (Figure 16).
3. It will be necessary to break out the masonry
around the location of the pipe center line mark
to a diameter of at least 4 inches for 3 inch
pipe, and at least 5 inches in diameter for 4
inch pipe.
4. Install the Tee on the bottom of the vertical
pipe system and lower it down the chimney until
the center of the branch of the Tee is level with
the center of the hole in the masonry. Connect
horizontal pipe section to the Tee branch.
5. Holding the pipe at the proper elevation,
install the Storm Collar and Cap, as described
in Step 11 for the replace installation.
6. Connect the horizontal piece of pipe which
goes through the masonry to the Tee by
pushing it through the hole in the masonry, and
lining it up with the branch of the Tee. Then
push it into the Tee, while twisting to lock it.
7. Once the horizontal pipe section is in place,
the space between the pipe and the masonry
may be lled with high temperature grout, as
shown in Figure 17, if desired.
8. Install the Reduction Collar or Trim Collar, the
90° Elbow, and the vertical pipe section going
to the appliance. An Adjustable Pipe length will
probably be needed, as well as an Appliance
Adapter.
9. Conduct a nal inspection of the entire job, and
review the manufacturer's operating and installation
instructions once more, before ring the appliance.
13
INSTALLATION IN A
CATHEDRAL CEILING
1. Mark a line on the side of the Cathedral
Ceiling Support Box to correspond to the line of
the roof pitch, as shown in Figure 18. Allow for
the Support Box to protrude below the low side
of the nished ceiling a minimum of 2 inches.
2. Position the appliance at its proper
location on the oor. Pay close attention to
the manufacturer's installation instructions
regarding the distances from combustibles, etc.
The appliance must also be positioned so the
Support Box will not interfere with roof rafters or
other structural framing.
3. Run a plumb line from the center of the ue
exit on the stove to the ceiling. Mark the point
on the ceiling where the plumb line intersects.
This represents the center of the support box.
Drill a small hole through the ceiling at this
point, so it can be located from the top of the
roof.
4. From the roof, locate and mark the outline of
the Support Box.
5. Remove shingles or other roof covering as
necessary to cut the rectangular hole for the
Support Box. Cut the hole 1/8-inch larger than
the dimensions of the Support Box. (Figure 19).
The rectangular hole should be centered on the
Figure 18
Figure 19
Figure 20
Figure 21
14
small hole which you drilled through the ceiling
to mark the location. Again, verify that you are
not cutting through rafters or framing members.
6. Run the Support Box through the roof as
shown in Figure 20, and place it so that the
bottom of the Support Box protrudes at least
2 inches below the nished ceiling. Align the
Support Box vertically and horizontally with
a level. Temporarily tack the Support Box in
place through the inside walls and into the roof
sheathing.
7. Using tin snips, cut the Support Box from the
top corners down to the roof line, and fold the
resulting ap over the roof sheathing (Figure
21). Before nailing it to the roof, run a bead of
non-hardening sealant around the outside top
edges of the Support Box so as to make a seal
between the box and the roof. Clean out any
combustible material or debris from inside the
Support Box.
8. Place the Pipe Clamp, (which comes as a
component of the Support Box) around the top
of the hole in the bottom of the Support Box
(Figure 23).
9. Connect the necessary amount of pipe
sections to reach the stove at a point where the
Cap will be at least 12-inches above the roof
(Figure 22).
10. Run the assembled pieces of pellet vent
pipe down through the Clamp of the Support
Box and connect to the appliance with an
Appliance Adapter. Using a level, make slight
adjustments in the position of the appliance until
the pipe is truly vertical. Tighten the bolts in the
Clamp. Note that the overall length of the pellet
vent pipe as assembled, can be no longer than
42 feet.
11. Slip the Flashing over the pipe section(s)
protruding through the roof. Secure the base to
the roof with roong nails as shown in Figure
24. Insure that the roong material overlaps the
top edge of the Flashing (Refer to Figure 2).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Have your system cleaned by a certied
chimney sweep if you have doubts about your
ability to clean it. Use a plastic or exible steel
brush. Do not use a stiff brush that will scratch
the stainless steel liner of your system.
2. PelletVent Pro systems must be installed
so that access is provided for inspection and
cleaning.
3. The pellet vent should be inspected at least
once every month during the heating season.
4. Do not use chemical cleaners. They can
damage the vent pipe.
5. To increase pellet vent life, coat all exterior
metal parts with high temperature, rustproof
paint. This is highly recommended, particularly in
areas near the ocean.
6. In case of a chimney re, close all appliance
draft openings, shut off pellet appliance and call
your Fire Department. Do not use the appliance
or vent until it has been inspected for possible
damage.
